I am going to get negged to buggery for this, but was I the only one who thought the team shape and selection looked a lot like something Tim would have come up with? Lots of homegrown youngsters, 4-4-2 ish, no holding midfielder, Eriksen pulling strings from the left, Lennon bulking out the midfield on the right...
Glad to see Poch got there in the end
It's similar to how Harry had us line up for the majority of the season we reached the CL (with Eriksen playing nominally wide left as Modric did). The lack of proper DM was brave - I'm not sure I'm entirely comfortable with it and it's putting a lot of pressure on Mason and Bentaleb but it worked today.
